Park Locations allow a specific group of people to park a call in a private location that only specific individuals can pick up. To be able to do this, they must be added as authorised members of a specific Park Location Group in the BT Cloud Work Portal.
Sample Scenario
CEO's assistant answers a call on behalf of CEO, who is on another call. Assistant parks the call on a specified Park Location. CEO can then pick up the call on his phone.
In this scenario, the CEO must allow the Assistant to answer calls on his behalf by setting up Presence Permissions. The Assistant must set up his Presence Appearance to show the CEO's Presence status on his phone. When he picks up a call, he can then transfer the call to a specific Park Location.
NOTE: Up to 100 Park Location Groups can be added via the BT Cloud Work Portal.
